Historical. 



Colonel Rich'd H. Savage, Chief Aid to Gen'l John 
McCoMB, the Grand Marshal chosen by the citizeus of the 
City and County of San Francisco to provide and in a fitting 
manner arrange for the celebration of the Anniversary of 
American Independence, in his address, dated June 17th, 
1875, to the people iuvoking their aid and co-operation, said: 

"The uear approach of the Ninety-ninth Anniversary of the Decla- 
ration of American Independence is the signal to invoke good citizens to 
aid iu perfecting the arrangements for a fitting celebration of the 

honored day. 

********* 

"Without partisan or sectional bias, looking only to the glorious 
national meinories of the past and to the prosperous future stretching 
far before us, let us, dsvellers by the Westex'n Sea, send back a loyal 
greeting to our fellow-citizens nearer the birthplace of National Freedom. 

"The first century of American freedom draws to its glorious close. 
National trials and struggles for existence have not shattered the noble 
fabric of Republican self-government, cemented as it is by the blood of 
our Revolutionary forefathers. Looking backward to the early vicissi- 
taie3 of oar National existence, the American citizen sees in the high- 
souled patriotism of the Revolution the grandest model of duty and 
self-devotion. Let us fittingly honor the day, the men, the deed. The 
Independence of America! its proclamation gave hope to suffering 
millions; its achievement has given happiness to a vast nation, in wealth 
and numbers far surpassing the most sanguine hopes of the many 
heroes who fought for posterity, who died that we might be free. In 
peacefnl enjoyment of the freedom so dearly purchased, let us, as a 
grateful body of fellow-citizens, forget any dividing line in the one 
proud boast that we are Americans." 

One of the results of Col. Savage's appeal was the forma- 
tion and appearance in the procession of a platoon of 
soldiers in Continental dress, comman ied by Capt. F. C. M. 
Fenn, who subsequently became a member of the California 
Society of the Sons of Revolutionary Sires. 



The Daily Alia of July 6th, 1875, said o£ Capt. Fenn's 
command: "It was a marked feature of the procession, and 
as they marched past in their antique uniform, one almost 
fancied that the procession was a pageant of the 17th century, 
rather than a celebration of this age of military and civic 
enlightenment." And further says: "The names of cele- 
brated battlefields and heroes of the Revolution, the separate 
letters of the words entwined in evergreen wreaths, the whole 
suspended across the streets, were handsome and were 
generally admired." 

The call issued by Col. Savage took root in fertile soil, for 
at about this period a few patriotic and enthusiastic citizens 
of San Francisco, descendants of the early emigrants and 
colonists of America, were quietly moving and endeavoring 
to bring to the notice of their immediate associates of Amei'i- 
can blood and birth the duty of honoring the founders of the 
American nation, and of perpetuating the principles for 
which these heroes " pledged their lives and their sacred 
honor," and of producing a higher appreciation of the 
responsibilities and obligations of American citizenship. 

Scarcely had the echoes of the celebration of Independence 
Day died away, when the sentiments aroused on that occasion 
assumed form and expression. A hundred days later, Fri- 
day evening, October 22ud, 1875, a meeting of descendants 
of soldiers, sailors and patriots of the Revolutionary War 
was called at the office of Dr. James L. Cogswell, No. 230 
Kearny street, San Francisco. Among those present at this 
meeting were Major Edwin A. Sherman, Deputy U. S. Sur- 
veyor-General for Nevada, Ira C. Root, Dr. P. W. Raudle, 
Rush R. Randle, Joseph Weed, Dr. Emory L. Willard 
and others, " who, when convened, did after consultation 
and due and proper consideration, proceed to formulate 
a plan of, and take preliminary steps for, the institution and 
organization of a society composed of descendants of soldiers, 
sailors and patriots of the Revolutionary War, or more spe- 
cifically understood and known as the War of 1776, whose 
deeds of valor in the field and services in the Council 



Chamber achieved the independence of the Colonies of the 
United States of America." 

At this provisional meeting, Dr. P. W. Randle was elected 
President. Dr. Randle was born at Sparta, Georgia, Novem- 
ber 9th, 1806. His sire was Captain Josias Handle of the 
Virginia Line, who, for a time, served as Aid-de-camp to 
General Washiugton. With his father he removed to Illinois 
in 1810, and later received his education at Transylvania 
College, Kentucky. He served with Abraham Lincoln in the 
Black Hawk War and was a Surgeon in the Mexican War 
and during the War of the Rebellion. On December 19th, 
1849, he arrived at San Francisco in the ship Arkansas, and 
ia the latter years of his life was connected with the U. S. 
Mint at San Francisco, where he died, January 13th, 1884. 
His remains were committed to mother earth by George H. 
Thomas Post, No. 2, G. A. R., of which he was a member, in 
accordance with the ceremouies of tlie Grand Army of the 
Republic. 

The provisional organization thus initiated, known as the 
Society of Sons of Revolutionary Sires, was held well in 
hand, when, on the 26th day of June, 1876, Centennial Year, 
the following card from a lady whose name is unknown 
appeared in the Daily Alta California: 

Editor Alia: 

Wouldn't it be a most novel but strikingly interesting idea in the 
programme of the procession for our City Centennial Celebration, to 
have represented our grandparents of the Revolution by the grand- 
children now living, residents of this city ? There might not be a single 
living son or daughter, but no doubt there might be a score or more of 
real grandchildren. 

Wouldn't it be splendid if enough couJd be found to represent every 
State in the Union, to ride in a car sufficiently large to carry them all 
each one carrying a small flag with the name of the State they repre- 
sent, and the car designated "The Revolutionary Grandchildren?" 

The writer of tliis is such an one, an elderly lady 55 years of age. I 
am the granddaughter and the step-granddaughter of six who passed 
through that bloody struggle inaugurated by the Declaration, the anni- 
versary of the signing of which we have celebrated for 9iy years, and 
now are about to give unusual eclat to the Centennial Anniversary. 
Two of those grandparents lived to be 93 and 96 years of age; both 



9 

received pensions from the U. S. Government; one of tliem never laid 
on a bed after that terrible struggle for our liberty, being deprived of 
that privilege through the asthma contracted from taking colds, sleeping 
out in snows and rains, suffering and exposure. 

If the writer could be transported back to my native home in good 
old Massachusetts, almost in sight of Plymouth Rock, I could (I think 
it is so fresh in my memory) put my feet on the very spot where I have 
stood with one of my grandmothers when she ti Id me thf re was where 
my grandfather dropped his plow, rushed into the old farmhouse, 
shouldered his musket, kissed her and his infant child (which only died 
two years ago, just 100 years old), mounted his farm nag just unhitched 
from the plow, and while the terrible sound of the horseman. To Arms! 
To Arms! was ringing in my grandmother's ears, he was away to Boston 
as a volunteer. All honor to our glorious, noble grandparents to-day. 
I could tell many, many incidents that they all have related to me, so 
green and fresh and heart-stirring to-day to me as when a child I heard 
them from their own lips, which I have told myself to many a dear little 
child in this city to try to explain what the 4th of July or Independence 
means. These things must be kept before the minds of our young 
and rising generation, for from some of them, at least, must come the 
future support of the whole fabric so dearly won by those martyred 
heroes, whose cry — Liberty or Death — went up to the ears of a willing 
Merciful Father to relieve us from tyranny and oppression, making a 
home for all to worship as they choose, and to buy, sell and get gain, 
and send it where they list. 

If the General of the day thinks anything of this — for I know you will 
let him see it— tell him I want to go and carry the old Bay State 
Flag, my dear native home, which I have not seen for fourteen years. 
I am the poor widow of one of the victims of the privateers of our last 
war, living in obscurity. 

Yours, etc., 



To the unknown correspondent of the Alia Dr. Cogswell 
replied in the following communication: 

REVOLUTIONARY DESCENDANTS. 



Editor Alta: 

The idea suggested by the granddaughter of one of our Revolu- 
tionary Sires seems a capital one; and as I belong in the same category 
with your correspondent, being the grandson of one of the Revolutionary 
heroes, I shall be happy to have all who belong to this class call at my 
office, No, 2.30 Kearny street, and organize for the occasion. 

Signed, 

J. L. Cogswell. 

San Francisco, June 26ih, 1876.

The issue of the Alia of June 28th contained the following 
local item (written by Geo. B. Mackrett, Journalist): 

"The grandchildren of Revolutionary Heroes have been invited to 
meet at the office of Dr. Cogswell, 230 Kearny street, and organize for 
the proper celebration of the day which their grandfathers fought to 
make the Republic's great national holiday; and it is not likely that any 
will be lax in the display of their patriotism through any proper channel 
that may be open to them. This is the time to arouse the enthusiasm 
and fire the patriotism of every son of freedom." 

Pursuant to the call, a number of descendants of Kevolu- 
tionary soldiers and sailors convened at the office of Dr. 
Cogswell, and agreed to connect themselves with the Society 
"planned and formulated" on the previous 22nd day of 
October, 1875, and to participate in the Centennial Anni- 
versary of American Independence, the celebration of the 
day having been entrusted to a General Committee of leading 
citizens of San Francisco. At the request of the assembled 
Revolutionary descendants the Grand Marshal issued the 
following invitation: 

1776. 1876. 

ATTENTION DESCENDANTS OF REVOLUTIONARY 

PATRIOTS! 

Headquarters Centennial Committee, 212 Kearny Street. 

Sak Francisco, June 28th, 1876. 
You are hereby requested to meet at the Headquarters of the Grand 
Marshal, No. 212 Kearny Street, at 8 o'clock p. m., on Thursday, June 
29th, for the purpose of making arrangements to participate in the 
celebration of the One Hundredth Anniversary of the Nation's Inde- 
pendence. Charles L. Wiggin, 

Chief of Staff to the Grand Marshal. 

On the same date of the issuance of the above invitation, 
the AUa., through its local column, called attention of de- 
scendants of Revolutionary Sires to the approaching cele- 
bration in these words: 

" The descendants of the Revolutionary patriots in this city are re- 
quested to meet at Headquarters of the Grand Marshal, No. 212 Kearny 
street, at eight o'clock this evening, for the purpose of making arrange- 
ments to participate in the Centennial Celebration." 

The foregoing request met with a hearty response, there 
being present about twenty-five persons claiming the distinc- 



11 

tion and honor of being enrolled as descendants of Revolu- 
tionary Sires, and arrangements were perfected for having a 
parade on Independence Day followiug. An adjournment to 
meet at the Palace Hotel Saturday evening, July 1st, was 
then taken. 

At the adjourned meeting the action to have a parade on 
July 4th was concurred in by almost thirty additional 
eligibles for membership who were present, the whole form- 
ing a nucleus for a promising parade on Independence Day, 
When the glorious day arrived, there were no less than 
eighty-eight names enrolled, eight of whom were actual Sons 
of Revolutionary Soldiers; but at the present writing only 
one of these — John K. Robinson — is borne on the rolls. 
Since that date two more have been enrolled, John C. B. 
Rutherford and Milton Andros. 

The parade attracted a great deal of attention, the line of 
march starting from the Palace Hotel at 9:30 a. m. and pass- 
ing through the principal streets, everywhere receiving that 
homage which would naturally fall to the descendants of those 
whose services destroyed the yoke of tyranny and made the 
glorious Stars and Stripes the symbol of a land of freedom in 
perpetuity. After the parade the little band returned to the 
Palace Hotel and there joined in, and more fully completed its 
organization as planned and formulated October 22nd, 1875. 

Now a word as to the objects of this society. From its 
very inspiration the promoters of the California Society 
planned that the organization should be made National in 
its attributes, and among other objects its first constitution 
provided for the organization of " auxiliaries, co-equal 
branches and representative bodies." The California organi- 
zation was perfected July 4, 1876, or seven years prior to the 
formation of any similar organization in any State in the 
Union. 

This plain statement of existing facts should forever set at 
rest its claim for dominance in point of life, and as all 
permanent bodies must possess parentage, so did the Cali- 
fornia organization become the sire of all assimilated 
branches and will forever remain as such — despite all quib- 
bling to the contrary. 



12 

The National Society early recognized the services of the 
California Society, by the adoption of, at the first National 
Congress, at Louisville, Ky., April 30, 1890, the following 
resolution : 

" }V}i,ereas, The Society of the Sons of the American Revohition was 
first organized in the State of California on the Fourth of July, 1876 ; and 

JVhereas, To Colonel A. S. Hubbard, of the California Society, is due, 
in a large degree, the credit of organizing that Society, and, in a still 
greater degree, the credit of maintaining that Society through trials 
which would have discouraged a less patriotic man ; now, therefore. 

Resolved, That in the publication of the names of the Presidents - 
General of the National Society of the Sons of the American Revo- 
lution, the name of Colonel A. S. Hubbard be hereafter included. 

Resolved, That the Secretary General be, and is hereby, instructed to 
inform Colonel A. S. Hubbard of the honor which this Congress has 
conferred upon him. 

At the third National Congress, at New York City, April 
30, 1892, on motion of Mr. Henry Hall, Historian General, it 
placed on record the following tribute to the memory of the 
late General Albert M. Winn: 

Resolved, That the name of A. M. Winn, first President of the Cali- 
fornia Society, shall hereafter appear in the roll of Past Presidents- 
General of this Society.
